Description
L'invention concerne une boîte de montre pour une montre-bracelet.The invention relates to a watch case for a wristwatch.
L'invention concerne également une montre-bracelet comprenant la boîte de montre et un bracelet en deux parties attaché à la boîte de montre.The invention also relates to a wristwatch comprising the watch case and a two part bracelet attached to the watch case.
L'invention concerne en outre un kit d'assemblage de la montre-bracelet, comprenant la montre-bracelet et un ou plusieurs bracelets de rechange.The invention further relates to an assembly kit for the wristwatch, comprising the wristwatch and one or more replacement straps.
Dans le domaine des montres-bracelets, il est connu de fixer le bracelet à des cornes de la boîte de montre, au moyen de systèmes de fixation tels que des barrettes à ressort, des pions métalliques ou encore des vis. Dans tous les cas, l'utilisateur d'une telle montre-bracelet ne peut pas désolidariser facilement le bracelet de la montre, par exemple pour changer de bracelet. Une telle opération nécessite en effet un outil adapté, un tel outil étant parfois uniquement à disposition des professionnels du domaine. Le remplacement du bracelet doit ainsi, dans la plupart des cas, être effectué par un professionnel, ce qui augmente par conséquent la durée et le coût de l'opération.In the field of wristwatches, it is known practice to fix the bracelet to the lugs of the watch case, by means of fixing systems such as spring bars, metal pins or even screws. In all cases, the user of such a wristwatch cannot easily separate the strap from the watch, for example to change the strap. Such an operation indeed requires a suitable tool, such a tool being sometimes only available to professionals in the field. The replacement of the bracelet must therefore, in most cases, be carried out by a professional, which consequently increases the duration and the cost of the operation.
Afin de remédier à cet inconvénient il est également connu des montres-bracelets avec bracelet interchangeable. Une telle montre-bracelet est par exemple décrite dans le document brevet
Toutefois, un inconvénient de la boîte de montre proposée dans le document brevet
L'invention a donc pour but de fournir une boîte de montre pour une montre-bracelet à bracelet interchangeable qui permette de réduire voire de supprimer les jeux de mouvement potentiellement perceptibles entre le bracelet et la carrure, et d'améliorer ainsi l'intégration entre ces deux éléments.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a watch case for a wristwatch with an interchangeable strap which makes it possible to reduce or even eliminate the potentially perceptible movement games between the strap and the middle part, and thus improve the integration between these two elements.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne une boîte de montre pour une montre-bracelet, qui comprend les caractéristiques mentionnées dans la revendication indépendante 1.To this end, the invention relates to a watch case for a wristwatch, which comprises the features mentioned in
Des formes particulières de la boîte de montre sont définies dans les revendications dépendantes 2 à 17.Particular shapes of the watch case are defined in
Un avantage de la boîte de montre selon l'invention réside dans le fait que les moyens de verrouillage mécanique comprennent au moins un organe élastique. L'organe élastique est élastiquement en prise avec les moyens de mise en prise complémentaires lorsque la bague annulaire est dans sa position de verrouillage. Grâce à l'élasticité inhérente à l'organe élastique, les jeux de mouvement potentiels entre le bracelet et la carrure sont avantageusement rattrapés. Ceci permet d'améliorer l'intégration de l'ensemble boîte de montre / bracelet, en offrant aucun jeu visible entre les deux éléments. En outre, l'utilisateur de la montre-bracelet peut solidariser ou désolidariser le bracelet de la carrure facilement, rapidement, et en une seule action de rotation sur la bague annulaire de la boîte de montre. Lorsque la bague annulaire est dans sa position de déverrouillage, les moyens de mise en prise complémentaires prévus sur les moyens d'attache d'un bracelet sont dégagés, permettant la libération des moyens d'attache de la carrure, et donc la désolidarisation du bracelet de la carrure.An advantage of the watch case according to the invention lies in the fact that the mechanical locking means comprise at least one elastic member. The elastic member is elastically engaged with the complementary engagement means when the annular ring is in its locking position. Thanks to the elasticity inherent in the elastic member, the potential movement games between the bracelet and the middle part are advantageously taken up. This makes it possible to improve the integration of the watch case / bracelet assembly, by offering no visible play between the two elements. In addition, the user of the wristwatch can fasten or separate the bracelet from the middle part easily, quickly, and in a single rotating action on the annular ring of the watch case. When the annular ring is in its unlocked position, the complementary engaging means provided on the fastening means of a bracelet are released, allowing the release of the fastening means of the middle part, and therefore the separation of the bracelet. of the middle.
Avantageusement, la bague annulaire présente une section constante et comprend au moins une échancrure apte à coopérer avec les moyens de mise en prise complémentaires prévus sur les moyens d'attache d'un bracelet, les moyens de mise en prise complémentaires formant ledit ou un desdits organe(s) élastique(s) et se présentant sous la forme d'une lame ressort prévue sur les moyens d'attache d'un bracelet.Advantageously, the annular ring has a constant section and comprises at least one notch able to cooperate with the complementary engagement means provided on the attachment means of a bracelet, the complementary engagement means forming said or one of said elastic member (s) and in the form of a leaf spring provided on the attachment means of a bracelet.
Avantageusement, la bague annulaire comprend au moins une portion amincie configurée pour permettre une déformation élastique, selon un rayon, de la bague annulaire dans un plan selon lequel elle s'étend, la ou chaque portion amincie présentant au moins une échancrure apte à coopérer avec les moyens de mise en prise complémentaires prévus sur les moyens d'attache d'un bracelet, ladite échancrure formant ledit ou un desdits organe(s) élastique(s). Ceci permet d'obtenir un gain en encombrement en largeur du système, puisque la bague annulaire travaille en flexion dans son plan. En outre, une telle configuration ne nécessite pas de pièces rapportées sur la bague annulaire pour assurer le verrouillage mécanique de l'ensemble, puisque la bague annulaire est formée d'une seule pièce de matière. Un tel agencement est en outre compact en diamètre, ce qui permet d'obtenir une intégration optimale entre le bracelet et la carrure.Advantageously, the annular ring comprises at least one thinned portion configured to allow elastic deformation, along a radius, of the annular ring in a plane along which it extends, the or each thinned portion having at least one notch capable of cooperating with the complementary engaging means provided on the fastening means of a bracelet, said notch forming said or one of said elastic member (s). This makes it possible to obtain a saving in terms of the width of the system, since the annular ring works in bending in its plane. In addition, such a configuration does not require any parts attached to the annular ring to ensure the mechanical locking of the assembly, since the annular ring is formed from a single piece of material. Such an arrangement is also compact in diameter, which makes it possible to obtain optimum integration between the bracelet and the middle part.
Avantageusement, la carrure est munie de deux paires de cornes opposées, les cornes d'une même paire étant agencées en regard l'une de l'autre, et les moyens d'attache d'un bracelet comprennent une paire de barrettes et une paire d'embouts, chaque barrette étant fixée entre les cornes d'une desdites paires de cornes, chaque embout étant apte à être solidarisé à une partie d'extrémité du bracelet, présentant une coupe transversale en forme de « U » et étant monté de manière amovible sur une des barrettes. Ceci permet de faciliter la solidarisation et la désolidarisation du bracelet à la carrure, en une seule action de l'utilisateur, ainsi que de permettre un positionnement précis du bracelet par coulissement de chaque embout sur une des barrettes.Advantageously, the middle part is provided with two pairs of opposite lugs, the lugs of the same pair being arranged opposite one another, and the means of attaching a bracelet comprise a pair of bars and a pair. end pieces, each bar being fixed between the horns of one of said pairs of horns, each end piece being adapted to be secured to an end part of the bracelet, having a cross section in the shape of a "U" and being mounted so removable on one of the bars. This makes it possible to facilitate the attachment and detachment of the bracelet to the middle part, in a single action by the user, as well as to allow precise positioning of the bracelet by sliding each end piece on one of the bars.
Avantageusement, chaque embout est muni d'une rainure de réception des moyens de verrouillage mécanique de la bague annulaire, ladite rainure s'étendant sur une face externe de l'embout en contact avec la carrure. Ceci permet de forcer la rotation de l'embout autour de la barrette pour rattraper la totalité du jeu potentiellement perceptible. Cette caractéristique fournit également une butée mécanique selon la direction parallèle à l'axe central de la carrure.Advantageously, each end piece is provided with a groove for receiving the means for mechanically locking the annular ring, said groove extending over an external face of the end piece in contact with the middle part. This makes it possible to force the rotation of the end piece around the bar to take up all of the potentially perceptible play. This characteristic also provides a mechanical stop in the direction parallel to the central axis of the caseband.
Avantageusement, la boîte de montre comprend au moins une butée d'arrêt de la bague annulaire. Ceci permet d'éviter une rotation de la bague annulaire trop importante autour de l'axe central de la carrure.Advantageously, the watch case comprises at least one stopper for stopping the annular ring. This makes it possible to avoid too great a rotation of the annular ring around the central axis of the caseband.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne également une montre-bracelet comprenant la boîte de montre décrite ci-dessus, qui comprend les caractéristiques mentionnées dans la revendication dépendante 16.To this end, the invention also relates to a wristwatch comprising the watch case described above, which comprises the characteristics mentioned in
A cet effet, l'invention concerne également un kit d'assemblage d'une montre-bracelet, comprenant la montre-bracelet décrite ci-dessus, et qui comprend les caractéristiques mentionnées dans la revendication dépendante 17.To this end, the invention also relates to an assembly kit for a wristwatch, comprising the wristwatch described above, and which comprises the characteristics mentioned in dependent claim 17.
